Coordinated Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning for Energy-Aware UAV-Based Big-Data Platforms

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel coordinated multi-agent deep reinforcement learning (MADRL) algorithm for energy sharing among multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in order to conduct big-data processing in a distributed manner. For realizing UAV-assisted aerial surveillance or flexible mobile cellular services, robust wireless charging mechanisms are essential for delivering energy sources from charging towers (i.e., charging infrastructure) to their associated UAVs for seamless operations of autonomous UAVs … Show more

“…A deep reinforcement learning strategy for coordinated multi-agent unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems is presented in [31] In order to achieve energy awareness in UAV-based big-data platforms, which are used for data collection and analysis in large-scale environments, the authors propose a system that employs deep reinforcement learning. The system is intended to reduce the amount of energy used by multiple UAVs for data collection and analysis.…”

“…Another major challenge is energy supply and the limited range for UAVs. Jung et al [63] apply a solution based on CommNet [26] to coordinate the assignment of UAVs to charging towers and to share energy between towers, optimizing power draw from the electrical grid and minimizing operational costs.…”
